Function match

match(content?, format?, isOutput?): Promise<Codec>
Match the codec based on file name, extension name, media type or by content sniffing.

Iterates through the list of codecs and returns the first that matches based on any of the above criteria.

If the supplied format contains a forward slash then it is assumed to be a media type, otherwise an extension name.

If trying to find a codec for an output, then content is more likely to be a path than actual content. This is passed through to vfile.isPath for detection.
Parameters
- Optional content: string
  
  The content as a file path (e.g. ../folder/file.txt) or raw content
- Optional format: string
  
  The format as a media type (e.g. text/plain) or extension name (e.g. txt)
- isOutput: boolean = false
  
  true if attempting to find a match for an output file
Returns Promise<Codec>
A promise that resolves to the Codec to use
